Aerodynamics of Low Reynolds Number Flyers (Cambridge Aerospace Series)
(Low Reynolds number aerodynamics is important to a number...)
Low Reynolds number aerodynamics is important to a number of natural and man-made flyers. Birds, bats, and insects have been of interest to biologists for years, and active study in the aerospace engineering community, motivated by interest in micro air vehicles (MAVs), has been increasing rapidly. The primary focus of this book is the aerodynamics associated with fixed and flapping wings. The book consider both biological flyers and MAVs, including a summary of the scaling laws-which relate the aerodynamics and flight characteristics to a flyer's sizing on the basis of simple geometric and dynamics analyses, structural flexibility, laminar-turbulent transition, airfoil shapes, and unsteady flapping wing aerodynamics. The interplay between flapping kinematics and key dimensionless parameters such as the Reynolds number, Strouhal number, and reduced frequency is highlighted. The various unsteady lift enhancement mechanisms are also addressed, including leading-edge vortex, rapid pitch-up and rotational circulation, wake capture, and clap-and-fling.

Computational Fluid Dynamics With Moving Boundaries (Series in Computational Methods and Physical Processes in Mechanics and Thermal Sciences)
(Presents developments in computational techniques pertain...)
Presents developments in computational techniques pertaining to moving boundary problems in fluid dynamics. It describes several computational techniques which can be applied to a variety of problems in thermo-fluid physics, multi-phase flow, and applied mechanics which involve moving flow boundaries. The book demonstrates the application of a variety of techniques for the numerical solution of moving boundary problems within the framework of the finite-volume approach, with appropriate examples.

Computational Techniques for Complex Transport Phenomena
(This book describes some newly developed computational te...)
This book describes some newly developed computational techniques and modeling strategies for analyzing and predicting complex transport phenomena. It summarizes advances in the context of a pressure-based algorithm and discusses methods such as discretization schemes for treating convection and pressure, parallel computing, multigrid methods, and composite, multiblock techniques. The final chapter is devoted to practical applications that illustrate the advantages of various numerical and physical tools. The authors provide numerous examples throughout the text.

Computational Modeling for Fluid Flow and Interfacial Transport (Dover Civil and Mechanical Engineering)
( Practical applications and examples highlight this trea...)
Practical applications and examples highlight this treatment of computational modeling for handling complex flowfields. A reference for researchers and graduate students of many different backgrounds, it also functions as a text for learning essential computation elements. Drawing upon his own research, the author addresses both macroscopic and microscopic features. He begins his three-part treatment with a survey of the basic concepts of finite difference schemes for solving parabolic, elliptic, and hyperbolic partial differential equations. The second part concerns issues related to computational modeling for fluid flow and transport phenomena. In addition to a focus on pressure-based methods, this section also discusses practical engineering applications. The third and final part explores the transport processes involving interfacial dynamics, particularly those influenced by phase change, gravity, and capillarity. Case studies, employing previously discussed methods, demonstrate the interplay between the fluid and thermal transport at macroscopic scales and their interaction with the interfacial transport.
